Afternoon sky

Just a quick shot taken on my way home. I didn't like how bright the sunny part of the sky was so I cropped it. The original image looks a lot clearer and sharper than this one does - how annoying - I don't like the one I see here at all!
I'm sorry you aren't pleased with this shot, I really like the feeling of depth that the texture I the clouds gives this image.

Thank you - I like the original image I have on my computer, but somehow in the process of uploading it here, the trees have become less sharp - they look much more in focus on the original. I do like the clouds / light though.

Well I like it too! I love the layers from the yellow at the bottom to the depth in the clouds particularly the wonderful light edging them (especially nice in large). The only thing I would say from a composition point of view is that the line of similar sized trees are great and would have looked better (perhaps) without the larger front tree. However, without a chainsaw or an axe ... I would be pleased to have taken this :)

I could have done better Malc if I'd gone a bit to the right, it was pure laziness - I just wanted to get home! At the right time of year you can capture the sunset right between the line of trees - this is an old photo of the same trees https://picasaweb.google.com/101666910723233386489/ProfilePhotos#5966947949271461330

See what you mean - what a difference a few yards make. Love the old photo - cancel the chainsaw :)

I looked back at your old photo, it's absolutely beautiful. However this has a soft beauty of it's own, I like it.
